The struggle is real ? hello everyone I am on my 4 day of a 2 week pre-op liquid diet and I am running out of ways to make chicken broth taste good lol....

I would simmer it with carrots, onions, celery, garlic etc like you would for chicken noodle soup and then strain it. might give it more of a "meal" feeling.

That pre-op diet ruined me from ever wanting to drink broth again. Are you allowed to have beef broth?

I just concentrated on the protein shakes. They filled me up enough that I didn't feel hungry most of the time.

However, my doctor did allow me to have one actual meal a day in this phase, as long as it was nothing but lean protein (I don't like fish, so lots of turkey and chicken for me) and vegetables. That made it somewhat easier.

@ Missouri-lee’s Summit Yes I am allowed to have beef broth but I don’t care for it to match

@Chrisb428 thanks for the idea I will try that

@Russ D you are right that protein shake did fill me up also??

My Pre-op was 3-4 shakes, I was allowed broth, but I didn't drink any because I don't like it, tastes like hot sweat... I was also allowed SF Jello, watermelon and the life saver, celery!

After being through this once already, I was able to have one small protein and vegatable meal per day until the last three days which was ONLY liquid. I too got very tired of the broth, but also i found that although the broth got old, I knew I just had to POWER-THROUGH and do it. Sometimes we have to do that to get to our goals.

Good Luck with this!

Have you tried Millie's sipping broths? Spicy tortilla and curry spice are both really good!

Sipping Broths sounds like a very good idea. I wounded if they can be found retail or it they are only,an "on line" item?

I relied on broths, sugar free popsicles, and fruit. The premiere protein helped a lot too. I did cheat twice on my liquid diet and my surgeon couldn’t tell. I did the gym during the diet. My two cheat days consisted of half a chipotle bowl with no rice, sour cream, or cheese. I considered it cheating because my portion was bigger than recommended. Honestly all of my one meals of the day were bigger than suggested but not overboard.
